Explanation of Extrapolated Standings:
http://sc2k5.com/drupal/node/11

Simple Explanation of Extrapolated Standings:
A = Strongest Character
B = Character Weaker than A
C = Character Weaker than B
To figure out a character's Xsts Percentage ---> [(CvB)(BvA)]/50 = CvA
To compare how C would do against B ---> [(CvA)/(BvA)]*50 = CvB
To figure out how B would do against A ---> [(CvA)/(CvB)]*50 = BvA

Also, Jill can whoop Marcus' ass. Marcus is just NOW getting the lead. Didn't the day vote technically start hours ago? If he has to depend on the "after school" vote, he's a pansy.

Somebody hasn't been paying attention this year, especially to Frog/Axel.

I'm voting for Cloud, if only because I thought the entire point of Zolom was to have him be the gauge of whether or not people vote anything FF7. Since its 4-way matches, it'd be much better to have him be the biggest loser in the bracket.

Oh yeah... 4,000 vote lead is definitely within the realm of possibility here. Just remember boys, this is just a taste of what MC will be doing! (I don't care if he's going against two Nintendo characters!)

Err... I thought it was just a joke in general.

Cait sith would be the best test subject for that, seeing as how literally nobody likes him.

BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/7/2007 12:44:55 PM | message detail
Like I said earlier, I think Fenix is alot more rounded than Kingdom Hearts characters in terms of voting trends. He does have a core group of 20-25 year old gamers that play Gears, and can vote at other times of the day.

That's probably why he started eating into Kefka's lead as early as he did.

Too bad he got put in a match where its almost impossible for that to happen.

I think the best match we could ever get statistically, would be Jay Solano/Master Chief.

It would be able to tell us exactly how many anti-votes the Chief gets.

MC would find a way to get under 60% on him.

Then he'd go on to get 49% against link, making jay look like a noble nine breaker. >_>

XIII_rocks | Posted 9/7/2007 12:47:47 PM | message detail
This is frighteningly consistent. I mean, Axel would occasionally make a cut of 50+ per update, but Fenix regularly gets 50, even 60+.

Here's my beef...

Gears of War is rated M for Mature. The afterschool vote is giving Marcus Fenix a crapload of votes. WHERE ARE THE PARENTS?!?! Monitor what you're kids are playing and you might have saved me my bracket pick order today. Stupid parents. Stupid Kefka.

MMX, did you play Mortal Kombat when you were a kid?

That's what I thought.

Besides, people seem to think after school vote implies 10-11 year olds, but remember, 15-17 year olds are still in high school, and they're a good chunk of the GeoW fanbase.
